Hello all,
I'd like to tap into the experience of those who have painted the plastic dash and sidewall panels in the cockpit area of their coach. FYI, my coach was originally a Palm Beach with the avocado green interior. Then a PO spray-painted it sky blue, but large areas weren't prepped properly so it's peeling off. So I have an ugly dash that's mostly sky blue with random sections of avocado.
I've already removed, prepped ,and sprayed the easily removed sections using DOT 3 brake fluid to strip as much paint as I can before spraying with Krylon Fusion paint.
I'm stuck on the big sidewall pieces. I can't loosen the screws up front just under the windshield. Not only are they in tight, the PO just painted right over them. Should I just do what he did - mask and paint them in place?
Is there a diagram somewhere that shows how to remove these trim pieces?
